Okay, since this seems to be one of the top subjects discussed anywhere in the LOST-verse, I felt we should have a less than emotional debate.

THE RULES:

(These are of course open to suggestion and alteration).

1.) State your piece. Are you for Sawyer and Kate or Jack and Kate? Do you not have an opinion either way? Are you torn? (Believe it or not, we are out there). Should this be a long term pairing or a short term pairing?

2.) WHY.List well thought out pieces of evidence supporting your feelings. Ex: "they have great chemistry." "they compliment each other well". Although it is "allowed", please try to have something more than "they look good together".

Would they be better off with someone else on the island? If you feel like bringing this into it, again back it up with reasons.

3.) NO name calling, offensive posts. For ANY rhetort, dont make it personal. Counter various statements with your own reasoning.

4.) Character bashing- this is tricky. You can use character FLAWS that have been presented to us . EX: "Kate seems to manipulate people." But if nothing else, LOST has given us the knowledge that NO ONE is perfect, and everyone has baggage no matter how mundane. The same goes for any "JACK IS GAY!"- what are we, in 5th grade?

5.) NO use of any future events. This means spoilers, rumors, speculation. Only what the show has presented to us.

6.) Artwork and/or pictures supporting your opinion is allowed.

My main point for the rules is, you got have some kind of reasoning. If youre reasoning is ala-Locke- "it's destined to be"- thats fine. But why do you feel that way?

And as of right now, I stand with the belief that Kate has chosen neither. She has simply expressed that she has feelings for both of them.

Please vote in the poll first, so everyone knows where we stand. I think it would be fun to vote again after the debate.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN! (MORTAL KOMBAT MUSIC COMES ON!)

I voted for Jate. At first I thought I wanted Skate but then I learned more about all three characters and realized in my mind that Jack and Kate should be together. I believe that Sawyer and Kate will work more as a short fling but in the long run, Jack and Kate is the best choice.

Sawyer and Kate are so similar that I believe they won't be as compatible as Jack and Kate are. Jack is good for Kate because he can take care of her and be a good influential type for her. Sawyer is so much like her that they won't be good for each other.

Artwork:

Aren't they cute together?

Okay so that's what I think!

Don';t care enough. It's fairly obvious that she's going to end up with Jack, for the sole purpose of them being the "heroes" of the story. But as far as chemistry goes, it really seems like Skate is the right one. Jack has shown near to NO interest in Kate so far. I doubt he even knew she liked him until she kissed him last episode. Maybe he'll realize something and start going after Kate in the furture or something (or admit he's secretly gay? ) but for now Skate's got something going.

Anyway, I'm confused... does this poll ask who it's EVENTUALLY going to be, or who it's going to be next epiusode, or what? Because it's both if you're just asking which is the "real" one.

Like, I can just picture them bonding in the hatch, cutting up fruit together and stuff like Locke did for Henry...and then...

Kate: Locke, sweetheart, don't use that knife to slice up the fruit, you've used it to hunt boar and haven't washed it...
Locke: DON'T TELL ME WHAT I CAN AND CAN'T DO! *throws pineapple at Kate*

Nope, I don't see it working out.

Err, on topic..

I'm on the fence with the JKS Love Triangle. I don't know who'll she end up with - for good. As Jack has said, I believe, "it's hard to tell with you [ Kate ] sometimes." I enjoy Skate in fandom AND on screen (because it's so fun and addicting), so I'm more of a Skater, I suppose. Jate is really interesting because they're so different and passionate, but it's hard for me to enjoy them in fandom. I like the occasional Jate music vid, but some of the Jaters creep me out, no offense. None of them here do ,but some are so persistent with the "JATE IS FATE!! DON'T TELL ME OTHERWISE!" stuff that I can't even allow myself to participate in Jack/Kate discussion in fear of getting my head blown off._________________
